Figure 5
Strain values on the αLH phase for different directions of the lattice (black curves) (a) in the monoclinic plane, and (b), (c) and (d) in planes formed by the twofold axis and a direction of an extreme value of the strain in the monoclinic plane (φ is the angle between the lattice parameter a and this direction). (b) φ = 21.5°, (c) φ = 81° and (d) φ = 142°. The red curves correspond to the strain values for commercial αL-H2O. |
